Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted November 29 Think this will make them play harder? Nice pot to split! So 20K to 40K per player? That doesn't suck... 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDuck No. 3 Share Posted November 29 I've been reading about this for the last several days. Actually since Oregon's inclusion was announced last May. Still don't understand the "per player" math. If the total NIL is $1.5 million for the winner (even 0-3 teams get $1 million) then that would be over 90K per on a 16 player squad - if the eligible recipients are players only and not staff. There are also NIL obligations while in Vegas that have to be met - such as attending a sponsor meet and greet, autograph session, participate in a golf tournament, etc. That's why they played Tues/Wed - then had Thurs/Fri off to allow additional time to meet NIL requirements. Assume that requires EACH player to meet those requirements. All 8 teams remain in Vegas for the 4 games on Saturday, even the 0-2 teams face each other on Sat. But there has been little disclosure from the Tournament or the media about what the specific NIL obligations are. Nor, any disclosure on the team's Twitter accounts. These games can't have very high attendance. Supposedly sponsors provide the largest portion of the about $9 million total pot for the 8 teams. And, team expenses are also covered. I understand some of the sponsors are used to peeing money away in Vegas, but still makes me wonder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
